Basil Holy Thai

Not the Thai basil sold in supermarkets — this is the genuine article: Ocimum tenuiflorum, Holy Basil, with its distinctive hairy stems, serrated leaves, and the intensely peppery, clove-forward flavour that is the irreplaceable herb of Thai Pad Kra Pao and the sacred herb of Ayurvedic tradition, brewed as Tulsi tea across South and Southeast Asia for thousands of years.
